Slash: 'Rose Is Phenomenal'
« on: April 05, 2010, 02:55:46 PM »
Former GUNS N' ROSES guitarist SLASH wants to end his decade-long feud with ex-bandmate AXL ROSE, insisting the pair could have an "interesting conversation" if they put aside their differences.

The top hat-toting rocker famously fell out with the frontman and quit the band in the mid-1990s, and the pair has yet to patch up their friendship over 10 years later.

Slash admits he's let go of his grudge - and insists it's up to Rose if the pair ever speak again.

He tells the New York Post, "I'm more standoffish because I know how vehemently he hates me. So that sort of makes me doubt it. But if we ran into each other and all that animosity were to pass for a second, then I'm sure we could have an interesting conversation."




And the guitarist admits he's impressed with Guns N' Roses' comeback album, 2008's Chinese Democracy.

He adds, "It was the perfect Axl record - exactly what I would have expected from the final years of us working together, and seeing where he was headed musically. It's very heavy; sort of a dark, depressing record. He's f**king phenomenal."

No one takes anything away from Rose at all. The dude knows what he's doing. Even though I don't like that the music is so depressing the music itself IS good and we all know no one can sing the like the fucker.

It would be nice if the two talked just for bs sakes but who knows with how closed off Axl is.

I'd pay $100 for an album made today by those guys even if it was known to be their last.

That voice, that dirty nasty guitar, that other guitars grove, that funky Seattle bass and that random upbeat drumming..

Ahh.. a gent can dream.

Oh God how I hate attention-seeking journalism. How did this hypothetical suggestion:

"But if we ran into each other and all that animosity were to pass for a second, then I'm sure we could have an interesting conversation."

turn into this:

"Former GUNS N' ROSES guitarist SLASH wants to end his decade-long feud with ex-bandmate AXL ROSE, insisting the pair could have an "interesting conversation" if they put aside their differences."
You should make your tag line something to the effect of "Kov's realism, shattering idealism everywhere."

This arcticle gives me impressions of Slash listening Chinese every day. His new album is good, but ain't good enough. He should listen Democracy more often.
Ask yourself.

Slash played well, but Robin wrote Better.

no i think he genually wants a reunion as most of us original fans.plus new ones axl has aquiered along his chinese democracy era.as a musician he prolly was wondering how it would sound.and found out why axl wanted to try different things musicly speaking.so i think axl should respect slash for speaking fond of him.but also we think other thoughts like money and bullshit axl really would rather have his pride still over.so slash can say the world to axl untill axl feels he should respond axl's way ?
maybe things would work out but for some reason axl will not budge.
chinese democracy yes indeed !

Slash can say all the nice things he wants, I know, you know, and Axl knows that anything between the two of them is never going to happen again.

Slash is still kick ass though

Hopefuly this is a good start for a reunion, cmon Axl stop being a pussy and reunite already!

A reunion starts to make more sense as time goes by. Axl has to ask himself, what does he really want after this tour ends? To finish it, go into hibernation for another four years and come back with another slightly altered line-up to tour the same songs again? Without new material (and I'm guesing there will bever be another studio album from GNR), it will become as hollow as Axl taking the money to get back on stage with someone he's been at war with for over a decade.

Like many others on here, I was genuinely excited when GNR returned and it had all these new characters. I was also excited by the prospect of CD. That was a long time ago and now it feels like this tour is the last one needed from GNR beyond having Axl, Slash, Izzy and Duff back together one last time. And, yes, it will sound inferior to what we're hearing at the moment. But it's better to regret something you do than etc...

And, hey, if Slash really does like CD so much, he can even try out some of Buckethead's parts!  ;)

"What's clear is that one of the two of us will die before a reunion and however sad, ugly or unfortunate anyone views it, it is how it is. Those decisions were made a long time ago and reiterated year after year by one man" Axl Rose

hey Slash I don't want your shit anymore, I'm happy with the stadium filler Axl Rose and his Guns N' Roses. you better go do more records with fergie and britney spears...
